Chances are that 22-year-old plastic gears have stripped in the seat mechanism. If that's the case replacement is the fix.


@chucktobias I think it's a threaded rod linear actuator arrangement, similar to a scissor jack. But yeah, could be worn bushings or whatever. I think repair kits are available.
